Privacy Awareness Week

Privacy Awareness Week (PAW) is an initiative started by APPA back in 2006. Since then, it has been held every year to promote and raise awareness for numerous privacy issues and the importance of protecting personal information. As a part of PAW, members hold a variety of different events and undertake various activities for individuals, businesses and government organisations.

This year, PAW will be held throughout May. Each APPA member will be nominating a week in May to celebrate PAW.

To see when your country will be celebrating PAW and to see the different initiatives that will be occurring in your country, contact your local privacy and data protection authority. You can find their PAW information below.
